[GLLUG] Hardy and WPA2- AES?

[Charles Ulrich]

I think this is a known bug in Hardy, as I've seen it mentioned in
several places already. However, I'm running a similar setup (WPA2 on
a Thinkpad with Atheros chipset) and I haven't seen any problems.
According to this bug, they're waiting on an upstream fix:
